Yukti meaning
Yukti (युक्ति) is a Hindu girl's name of Sanskrit origin.
Reasoning, argument; skill, contrivance; union; fitness, propriety
Also used to mean: logic
Yukti (युक्ति) is the Sanskrit noun yukti, from yuj, "to join, to yoke". Monier-Williams gives union, connection and combination; a clever contrivance or means; reasoning, argument and proof; and fitness or propriety. In Indian philosophy yukti is the word for sound reasoning, and in everyday Hindi it means a clever way of doing something. Name lists give "logic", "reasoning" or "skill", all of which match the dictionary.
